Multi-Select Bugs

[flashybamboo]

Absolutely love Planet Zoo but there are two specific annoyances I have when building and I was wondering if this is affecting anyone else or if I'm missing something

- When I select multiple objects withing a group (objects that can be recoloured e.g multiple Painted Brick Walls) and click the desired colour change in the pallette, the game will deselect everything I've selected instead of changing the colour. What I find weird is when I try a second time it usually works fine. To avoid wasting my time I'm having to select small groups of objects at a time to avoid selecting say 20 or 30 pieces and have them all deselected.

- When I select multiple parts of a fence I sometimes cant see the 'change height' button, but I will if I select them again. I haven't tried this recently so this may have been fixed but thought I'd mention it since I had a lot of trouble with it when I first started playing.

It feels like these two issues are connected. If I'm misunderstanding the mechanics of multi-selecting in the game please let me know. They could be bugs but it took me a while to get to grips with the science of laying paths so it's just as likely that I'm missing something here

Thanks!

I don't know if this will help at all, but for your second point I've had something similar; usually zooming in or out on a section of fence allows me to see the change height button.
The first one sounds like a bug to me though, have you reported it/checked the issue tracker for a similar issue?

For me if I select a whole fence, all the way around to fast the edit buttons never pop up and I'll get an "error" sound when clicking on it or trying to do anything.
To avoid this, when it comes to the last piece of fence I have to slow down and very carefully drag the select button to the other without dragging it to far. Gets really annoying if I just want to do a simple edit.

Make sure you have not accidentally selected another piece somewhere behind the pieces you want to select. If this is not a flexicolor object, you cannot change the color and clicking on the palette or anywhere will deselect everything. That’s the only “issue” I have noticed with recoloring multiple objects.
